CUServes
Build the kind of community you want to belong to. The CU Boulder community is a herd made up of many, and we make an impact through individual and collective action wherever we roam. Getting involved in your community through activities such as volunteering time and skills, voting and donating needed items such as food, blood and other basic resources are all ways to give back to the greater good while building your skills, experience, network and sense of belonging at CU.
Our office exists to connect CU Boulder with changing community needs and meaningful ways to volunteer. CUServes is a helpful and exciting way to connect CU’s Boulder and community organizations that rely on volunteers in the Boulder area. Whether you are a student leader of an organization looking to find new members or an individual student looking to get more involved, make new friends or fulfill required community service, CUServes is the hub for getting started and staying engaged through service. Check out some of the upcoming events you’ll find on CUServes.
Do you need help deciding how to get involved? Visit our office or schedule a virtual consultation. We would love to help you! You can reach us at volunteer@colorado.edu.
CU students interested in finding volunteer hours and opportunities can visit our new CUServes website to connect with local nonprofits, campus offices and community events that are in need of volunteers.
- Choose “log-in via Colorado” to use your IdentiKey
- Update your profile
- Access all the great features of the program!
Local nonprofits must have a community partner page in CUServes to participate and share information about volunteer opportunities.
- Visit to create your profile and the group page for your organization. It is best to use a general organization email rather than an individual’s email address when creating your profile. By creating your profile and group through this link, your organization will be automatically affiliated with CU Boulder and you’ll be able to begin creating events that are posted on our primary page.
If you already have a GivePulse page, you can simply search and click Affiliate. - Continue building out your logo, social media platforms, events and volunteer shifts using this helpful guide to learn the basic features.
- Create events for upcoming opportunities that students can sign up for.
- Track and verify impacts.
Campus departments and student organizations that either want to recruit volunteers or who want their members to be able to track their impacts can also create a group in CUServes.
To set up a page within the platform, please send us an email and let us know that you want to create a group for your office or organization. We can then help create a page for you that your members can join and on which you can post events to recruit volunteers.
